5.3. Ventilated 2-Tier Roof

The gazebo features a 2-tier steel roof designed to provide optimal airflow and ventilation. This design helps to reduce heat buildup and allows wind to pass through, enhancing comfort while offering protection from the elements.

6. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the frame and roof with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and dry to prevent water spots or residue buildup.
• Fasteners: Periodically check all bolts and screws to ensure they remain tight. Re-tighten as necessary to maintain structural integrity.
• Seasonal Care: While the hardtop roof is designed for durability, consider removing heavy snow accumulation to prevent excessive stress on the structure.
• Wood Frame: The cedar wood frame is naturally resistant to decay. However, applying a wood sealant or stain periodically can help maintain its appearance and extend its lifespan.

7. Troubleshooting

• Water Accumulation: The gazebo's roof is designed with rain gutters to direct water flow. Ensure these gutters are clear of debris to prevent water pooling.
• Stability Issues: If the gazebo feels unstable, verify that all ground stakes are properly installed and secured. For additional stability, consider anchoring the posts to a concrete patio or deck.
• Loose Parts: If any parts become loose, re-tighten them immediately. If a part is damaged, contact customer service for replacement.
